Guitar identification: Sargent archtop 1940's?
I bought a Sargent archtop at an auction in Anchorage, Alaska for $50. It was missing all hardware and the top and back were separating from the sides. I have been "repairing" it to make it playable. I have not been able to find any information on Sargent guitars. It appears like it is mid-century. No other marking I have found aside from the headstock. It has fabric tape on back that may be some kind of bracing? Has anyone ever heard of this brand or have any information?

Just a hunch, but the typography on the logo makes me think 1970s, which is sort of late for inexpensive archtops. I'll be interested in what anyone else can contribute on this one.
